I bought a maximum & minimum thermometer, the sort that has the tiny metal bits that sit above the liquid to record the highest/lowest temperatures. Well, my two metal bits seem to be stuck within the liquid, not on top of it. How do I rectify this? Pressing the reset button doesn't help as that's for dropping them back down to the liquid, not for raising them above it again. Can anyone help please?
I think it's regional differences...
